The Music Box (1932)

Nominated for 1 Academy Award*:

Best Short Subject, Comedy (WON)

(*nominated at the 1932 ceremony)

 

The first short film ever to win the Oscar in the shorts’ category had starred the famous duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy and I notice now it’s pretty popular and seen by many. 😊 It’s a 30-minute comedy, featuring their typical physical comedy. It’s about our two heroes taking a piano up a flight of stairs, and of course disaster strikes at every corner. It’s very funny if you enjoy this silly type of humour (I do) and I am sure it influenced many other comedies and comedians that followed.

 

I give it: 8.5/10
